Del Monte set price for stock rights

On January 31st, Del Monte Pacific Limited (DMPL) announced it had set the share price of its rights issue at P10.60 in the Philippine market and SGD 0.325 in the Singapore market, which is set to raise $154.4 million. Less than the $180 million initially targeted by the food giant to reduce its debt following the acquisition of its US counterpart Del Monte Foods, Inc. (DMFI).
Still, this falls in line with the long term growth strategy mentioned by DMPL Chairman of the board Rolando Gapud: “We have several growth strategies in the pipeline, we are quite confident about this”.
